Sample Book Insights:
#1 Heroification is a process that makes people over into heroes. Through this process, our educational media turn flesh-and-blood individuals into pious, perfect creatures without conflicts, pain, credibility, or human interest.
#2 Helen Keller was a radical socialist who joined the Socialist party in 1909. She had become a social radical even before she graduated from Radcliffe, and not because of any teachings available there. She became a Wobbly, a member of the Industrial Workers of the World, a syndicalist union persecuted by Woodrow Wilson.
#3 Helen Keller was a radical who spent her life fighting for the free speech of others. She was also a socialist, and her conversion to socialism caused a new storm of publicity. She never wavered in her belief that our society needed radical change.
#4 Under Wilson, the United States intervened in Latin America more than at any other time in our history. We landed troops in Mexico in 1914, Haiti in 1915, the Dominican Republic in 1916, and Panama in 1918.
